Oldiesmann Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 After some googling, it appears that this error is due to a problem with the session.save_path directive in php.ini. Make sure that it's set to a valid directory and that the IIS guest user (IUSR_yourcomputername) has permission to write to that directory.

nadeemshafi9 Posted July 13, 2007 Author Share Posted July 13, 2007 on mu iis6 it created session data on xp in the c:\tmp dir and it didnt need permissions, anyways i created a directory and pointed the session.savpath c:/intpub/wwwroot/session to it, phpmyadmin is showing a different more better fuller error latley. i whent to the dir c:/intpub/wwwroot/session and gave IIS_IUSR full permission on it by right click th dir and properties. this is what php admin says now Cookies must be enabled past this point.

Oldiesmann Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Double-check php.ini - it shouldn't be putting "N;" at the beginning of the path like it's showing in the error message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nadeemshafi9 Posted July 13, 2007 Author Share Posted July 13, 2007 i put that there myself, it tells u to, but i removed it and it still does the same, it just cant create the sessions, it wont allow it, the wwwroot directory is so protected even when i create a directory or delete a file in wwwroot it asks me to grant permissions to my own action Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
